The KGB spy museum, which entered the top 3 of world museums of espionage, opened in the heart of New York and will delight the American public.

Huge investment in spyware between the years 1954 and 1991 led to significant losses in the economy of the Soviet Union. But the authorities considered these expenses to be extremely important and necessary, since they were supposed to prevent the penetration of Western ideas into the USSR and ensure maximum closeness of the country.

The key weapon of the KGB was fear. Not only did the citizens of the USSR live in fear of the consequences of subversive activities, but they also carried constant fears and fears through their daily lives, often not understanding what they were afraid of, because the advanced technologies created for the Soviet spies allowed the KGB to follow the population, listen to what people say in private conversations, and at the same time recording equipment for covert surveillance and wiretapping was almost impossible to detect. Spy equipment, created with unimaginable ingenuity, allowed KGB agents to keep an eye on the everyday life of the citizens of the USSR, leaving no place for the inhabitants of the largest country in the world to hide.

However, this fear machine was not limited to the Soviet Union. KGB spies acted in different countries of the world, including the USA. There were rumors and legends about Soviet intelligence agents in the States, but no one knew who they were or how they acted. Only now you can see the real tools that these spies used, allowing them to merge with the crowds and go unnoticed.

By visiting the KGB espionage museum, you will understand how much this secret organization has had a great influence on people's lives and on the world order, as well as imbued with espionage romance and learn a lot of interesting things that you definitely want to share with friends. The museum exposition, most of which is exhibited for the first time, contains a collection of items used in missions by well-known KGB agents, reveals the strategies and methods underlying many top-secret espionage operations.

The KGB museum is curated by 55, a Lithuanian-born Julius Urbaitis. For many years, Julius was an expert on the history of the KGB, a curator of military and spy methods, as well as a writer and lecturer on espionage, so the description of each exhibit was created with deep knowledge of the matter, and excursions will give the feeling of complete immersion into the life of a scout. The KGB espionage museum works exclusively for educational purposes; it aims to demonstrate what life was like during times of political turmoil, and what extremes people were willing to go to protect themselves.

The KGB Spy Museum is open seven days a week from 10: 00 to 20: 00 at 245 West 14th Street, New York, NY 10011.
